Samsung Gravity 3

As with Samsung's Gravity 1 and 2, the Gravity 3 is a messaging phone for T-Mobile. It's very similar to its predecessors, but receives a fetching makeover.

Tools on the side

The right spine houses a dedicated camera button and a MicroUSB charging port, while the left spine hosts the volume rocker. Since there's no dedicated headphone jack, anyone wishing to make wired calls will need to use a MicroUSB headset. There is, however, stereo Bluetooth support for hands-free calling.

Electric slide

Electric blue accents show up on the rim, the dialpad, the keyboard, and the back of the Gravity 3's sliding screen.

Full QWERTY

The full QWERTY keyboard gets an attractive visual upgrade, but, sadly, loses the two soft keys that aided navigation in the Gravity 3's predecessors.

The 2.0 megapixel camera takes basic photos that won't win you any prizes, but is capable of capturing the moment.
